johnsons motor car Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]
Well done my renegades corner, one morning I did stray,
I met a fellow rebel and to me he did say,
We have orders from our
captain to assemble at
Dunbar,
But how are we to get there
without a motor car?
Oh,
Barney, dear me, of good cheer,
I'll tell you [Eb]what we'll [G]do.
The specials, they are plentiful, but the
IRA are few.
We'll send a wife to
Johnson to meet us at
Stranlar,
and we'll give the boys a
bloody good ride in
Johnson's mother car.
When
Dr.
Johnson heard the news, he
soon put on his shoes.
He said, this is an urgent
case, there is no time to lose.
[Ab]He t[G]hen put on his castor hat and
on his breast a star.
Never [Ab]did let [G]in on who'd let in at
[D]Johnson's [G]motorcar
Ah, but when he got to the railway
bridge, the rebels he saw there
Now,
[Ab]Johnson [G]knew the game was up, but
Adam laid it still
He said, I have a permit
to travel near and far
To hell with your
English permit, we want your motorcar
What will my loyal brethren think
when they hear the news?
My carriage has been
commanded by the rebels at
Van
Loose
We'll give you a receipt for
it, all signed by
Captain
Bar
And when
Ireland gets her freedom, boy,
you'll get your motorcar
Well, they put that [G]car in motion,
and built it to her [G]brim
With guns and bayonets [G]shining,
which made old
Johnson grim
And
Barney hoisted the chint and
flagged her brother like [G]a star
And we give great cheers for the
Iole and
John[Ab]son's [Eb]motorcar
[G]
